11:45 pm - Daily triv
Strung up a guitar and a bass today, finally getting to the end of all the acoustics and getting some work out the door.




And stared to get some of the crap and grime off of the 301 Engine




Made a rolling dolly to hold the front of the frame so i can cut off the front suspension..

8:28 am - Banned Poem
                            TOUGH BEING WHITE

                            ( SHORT VERSION )





                                                    FOR ARCHIE                 

      

IT'S TOUGH BEING WHITE

THERE'S ALL THOSE MINORITIES TO OPPRESS

THEY'RE SO SULLEN

AND UNGRATEFUL

AND THEY REFUSE TO QUE UP IN AN ORDERLY FASHION

AND THEY LIKE TO GET YOU OUT NUMBERED,

HOW IS THAT FAIR?

THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MINORITIES, FER CRISSAKE!



THEN THERE'S ALL THAT MONEY TO COUNT

THOSE COUPONS TO CLIP

ALL THAT GOLD TO HOARD

AND SILVER TO CORNER

AND PLATINUM TO DROOL ON

GET YOUR EYES ALL STRAINED AND FINGERS ALL SPATULATE  JUST CALCULATING  ALL THAT LOOT



AND THERE'S ALL THOSE DEVIATES TO DESPISE

FAGGOTS

AND BULL DAGGERS

AND WIENIE WAGGERS

AND BUTT FUCKERS

AND CHICKEN RAPERS AND DOPE FIENDS

AND DRUNKARDS

IT'S ENOUGH TO DRIVE A MAN TO DRINK

AND ARE THEY GRATEFUL OF ALL YOUR HARD WORK?

IN A RODENTS RECTUM,  THEY ARE



AND ALL THOSE NATIONALITIES TO KEEP DOWN

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY KINDS OF FOREIGNERS THERE ARE IN

THE WORLD?

THERE MUST BE TWO HUNDRED DIFFERENT KINDS OF GOOKS ALONE, NOT COUNTING SLOPES, DINKS, AND GREASERS.



AND THEY'RE ALL SO TOUCHY

CALL A DAGO  A  DOTHEAD AND YOU'VE GOT BIG TROUBLE



DO THEY CARE ABOUT THE PAINS YOU TAKE TO HATE THEM ALL EQUAL LIKE?


AND THEN THERE'S ALL THAT RICH FOOD TO CHOKE DOWN



DOLPHIN TENDERLOIN THREE TIMES A DAY

AND THE CANDIED HUMMINGBIRD TONGUES

AND THE SNAIL DARTERS IN ASPIC

AND THE SPOTTED OWL PATE

AND THOSE LIVE MONKEY BRAINS ALWAYS GIVE ME GAS



AND ALL THAT RAPE ONE IS OBLIGATED TO DO



I CAN ACCEPT THAT ALL SEX BY WHITE MALES IS RAPE

BUT ITS SO TEDIOUS IN PRACTICE

I MEAN IT'S OK AS LONG AS THE SUPPLY OF BLONDE VIRGINS AND CHUBBY ARAB BOYS HOLDS OUT, BUT TRYING TO GET IT UP TO RAPE THE OLD LADY EVERY NIGHT IS A STRAIN

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A FIFTY YEAR OLD WELLSELY GIRL NAKED?

YOU CAN'T EVEN JUST QUIETLY JERK OFF AND GET SOME SLEEP LIKE THE LOWER CLASSES

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO MASTURBATE WHILE HOLDING A GUN ON YOURSELF?

TAKES ALL THE SPONTANEITY OUT OF ORGASM





IT'S A HELL OF A RESPONSIBILITY

AFTER ALL THE LARGEST INTELLECTUAL INDUSTRY IN THE WORLD IS  POINTING OUT WHITE MEN'S SINS TO THEM

WHAT WOULD ACADEMIA DO WITHOUT US?

OF COURSE, I TURN A TIDY PROFIT DEFORESTING WHOLE CONTINENTS FOR PAPER

BUT THAT'S A SMALL CONSOLATION

OH WELL, IT'S THE WHITE MAN'S BURDEN


PLEASE EXCUSE ME....I MUST GO FORECLOSE SOME MORTGAGES ON SOME BISEXUAL, CRIPPLED, RASTAFERIAN ORPHANS, AND THROW THEM OUT IN THE SNOW.

THE HARD PART IS, THAT THERE IS NO SNOW IN JAMAICA, SO I'LL HAVE TO FLY SOME IN FROM MY BABY SEAL FARM IN GREENLAND.

IT'S REALLY EXPENSIVE, AND MY ONLY REWARD IS THE SATISFACTION OF A JOB WELL DONE



 IT'S NOT EASY BEING WHITE.

8:16 am - Credit Where Credit is Due
Had a huge crowd at the Writer's Group, Nathan Ross Freeman brought one of his Young Urban Persons Groups, and we were treated to four or five versions of the "White Folks Made Me Smoke Crack" meme. Two of the group somehow missed the indoctrination and actually read poetry.

I'm sure they will pay.

I was good and didn't read any of the poems that got me thrown out of the Slam Biz, such as "It's Not Easy Being White." I just chickened and read the first chapter from the second "Hell Hound" book. Most people didn't get it.

The two best applause getters were [info]spikesleman and honorable wife person Teresa who read "Redneck Woman From Hell" pieces, both very funny and crude.

That was only Teresa's second reading, which is very cool.

5:23 pm - Triva
Took the dogs to the vet today, a major struggle.. Buck wants to go so bad, he has new places to pee on.. About tore my arm off in his enthusiasm. Stupid dog.

Then went up to Shannocks music and spent 150.00 on tuners and strings. Boy, i must be winning here, right?

Worked in the shop later, ground down the bass i didn't get to yesterday, because bro-in-law was guiding me to political perfection.

Boring. I don't give a fuck how paranoid you are, dude, Obama is not going to kick in your door and take your precious guns. And i don't foresee the need for any abortions in the near future, and i could care less how many gay people marry each other. *Do*Not*Care*

Actually i do think a person i used to be close to is in a gay marriage. *Do*Not*Care*

Just like i don't care that there are three or more biracial children in my extended family. This comes under the heading of "None of my business."

I care about oil and global warming, not that i can do shit about that either.

Obama or McCain would have to come out for legalization of pot and  emptying out the jails to get me to go to the polls this year.

Otherwise, fuckem both.

So then i planed down the last of the persimmon wood to make a hundred fingerboards. Weeee........ Excitamente maxima. But fingerboards would cost me 10.00 each, so it's economic, if not very inspiring.

And took  the engine off the frame to see if i can clean it up, and give it the proverbial "rattle can rebuild"

It looks like I need almost two grand to get a gen-urine hot rod front end for the Real Rod. That's a lot of money. About six bass units of cash.

And so off we go to the WS Writer's Group meeting. At least they think i can write. Old perople are so easily fooled, you know.

9:42 pm - Trivdate


There's the next project.. And we went to see "Clone Wars" A lot better than i thought, that blocky animation works in a mythic sort of way, and it moved right along. And the fanboys are whining so loud they will probably crash the internet, which is all to the good.

6:52 pm - Next Project
I am getting itchy to build something, and have decided to sell the Frankenwagen as is and move on to Code Name "Realrod"

Buick 301 V-8, 36 Ford Cab, Datsun Frame. I don't think i will use anything but the frame rails of the Datsun, the rear end and the front suspension look real puny.

And the rest of the day was medium aggro. Ground down two basses, got them in the spray room.  My Bro-in-law, the drummer came over and i had to be nice to his right wing stuff.

And stuff

11:43 pm - Book #32
"Ink and Steel" E. Bear. Amazing.. i have been trying to imagine who else would have the the sheer nerve to write a book about "Shakespeare in Love" exactly like this. Or the chops to pull it off.

Very clear, deceptively simple writing, all linear and everything.. I am most impressed by her handling of the Elizabethan dialogue. Better than Mark Twain's  in "Prince and the Pauper." Sounds just like people talking to each other.

8:48 pm - Triv all the way down.
Worked in the shop until 4:00, got one HBlues Dog in the spray room.  This week and last were "fill the pipeline" days.. Tons of stuff almost ready to sell or ship, nothing actually done.

Then worked on the Frankenwagen, fixing some screwups i paid a professional to do. Tried to hook up the parking brake, and put on a new speedo cable to replace the one that touched the exhaust pipe.

Very aggro working on my back, doncherknow.

But my plan of keeping the novel file open and working at odd moments is working well.. Beter than wasting all that typing on blogs.. Just as futile, no doubt, but working.

And where the fuck is my poetry book?

4:21 pm - Another bit of history
In 1967, Lear set out to conquer new fields that would utilize his ingenuity, drive and inventive genius. Lear sold Lear Jet Industries for $28 million and bought Stead Air Force Base near Reno, Nevada. There, one of his major undertakings was the development of a radical new pollution-free automotive engine. After establishing Lear Motors Corporation, he quickly selected the steam engine as his base and set out to overcome its historic problems. Lear developed an external combustion, vapor-driven turbine engine which had very low emissions and was capable of powering a transit bus. But the undertaking was a massive one, involving a myriad of difficult problems. After investing $17 million from his own pocket, Lear was forced to conclude that while his engine was operationally successful, it was not as fuel efficient as a conventional engine.

This engine was a turbine and used a refrigerant as the working fluid instead of water. Somebody could look into this again. Materials are a lot better now, as is turbine design.

Anybody got a billion or two to invest?

Ethanol Power to the People (broadcast Friday, August 15th, 2008)

Ethanol is the most commonly-discussed biofuel, but there are others.

In recent years, the use of ethanol as a biofuel to help deal with the ongoing energy crisis has received a good deal of attention from Washington. But can we produce both food and fuel -- and can ethanol truly replace oil and gas?

In this segment, Ira talks with ethanol biofuel advocate David Blume about common misconceptions about the use of ethanol for fuel, and about Blume's vision for decentralized, community supported ethanol production in the US. Could a neighborhood ethanol distillery be in your future?

Guests

David Blume
Executive Director of the International Institute for Ecological Agriculture
Author, "Alcohol Can Be A Gas" (International Institute for Ecological Agriculture, 2007)

 

Pretty Damn Interesting. File under "Everything You Know is Wrong" 

 

Did you know that the Rockefellers financed Prohibition to prevent alcohol from becoming a fuel to compete with gasoline?

 

I do know that those old low compression engines could burn almost anything. Race cars still burn alcohol as a survival of those days.
